Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

The description stresses firm umami and a flavor-led character over aroma, so the profile leans toward a rich, restrained junmai style. The 50% polish and Omachi rice suggest modest aroma with a long finish and only moderate sweetness.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About

Taste: Rich umami is clearly present, with a simple character and a long finish. Recommended dishes: Meat dishes such as wagyu beef, pork, and game. Omachi (a sake rice variety) is one of the few sake rice varieties that has kept a pure-lineage strain. Akasaka (赤坂) in Akaiwa City is said to be the most highly regarded growing area and is considered the highest-rated Omachi. It has a firm umami that gives it substance, and it is more a sake of taste than of aroma. Try serving it in a slightly thick ceramic vessel to enjoy how the mouthfeel changes. Release timing: Year-round
